​Education for All

We care

about underprivileged children and young people living in favelas in Rio de Janeiro. We teach them valuable life & academic skills and foster their character and development towards becoming positive members of their community.​ All our volunteer teachers are qualified professionals.

We love

equipping young people -who live in underprivileged circumstances in the Pãvao-Pavãozinho and Cantagalo communities, in Rio de Janeiro´s south zone- with the skills to achieve their full potential, with the ultimate goal of converting better jobs into better lives.We have various educational programs: complementary education where we focus on their character strengths and teach them social & life skills to build their character, strengthening academic skills and also providing extra-curricular education to develop their work skills for market needs.

We strive

to be the place where underprivileged children and adolescents feel encouraged and motivated to develop a love of learning and can develop their curiosity and creativity. Our volunteers are trained to create this loving and encouraging environment.

We help

shape their character by finding ways that children and adolescents can learn about their strengths and become the best version of themselves regardless the circumstances they live in. Our volunteers use Positive Discipline as a methodology to guide them to develop their life and social skills.

​

We empower

at-risk children in this community by surrounding them with attention, love and support and provide good quality education by focussing on building character as well as academic skills. Our programs empower and encourage our students to learn the skills needed to prepare for their future, a future that we with our volunteers at EduMais try to make brighter!

We respect

these underprivileged children and adolescents and create a safe place for them to explore, to experiment and to learn, while feeling connected and valued.​

Don´t miss what´s going on with our children, our volunteers and our programs. We´ll keep you in the loop here.​

Our volunteers create a loving, caring and encouraging place where we provide extra quality education to improve the underprivileged circumstances. We work with the community. We have regular meetings to get to identify how we can best meet their needs.
